Ramblings of a Northerner

EoTE - Edinburgh on the Edge

October 27th, 2006

Karen and I met Adrienne downtown for a early evening “chocolate drop” (Adrienne picked up Karen’s remaining candy on order from people back home).  We ate dinner at a local bar called Monster Mash that specializes in nasty greasy sausages.  Because I didn’t want any of those horrible sausages, I actually had haggis, neaps and tatties (based on the recommendations of the guys at work) and it wasn’t bad, mostly like wet meatloaf and oatmeal.  The three of us then went to see an improv show (the ONLY improv show) performed by the Improverts; it was largely identical to a ToTE show, so much so that I think they got a hold of Hugh’s old handle list and just work from that.  We said farewell to Adrienne (who was crazily doing a full weekend of fencing competition and has sadly not done any stage combat recently) and headed towards the bus.  Unfortunately we got there during the normal bus to night bus switchover, so we were waiting for a bus for about an hour (with Karen getting more unhappy by the minute but her cuteness factor going up proportionally with each passing tick).  Eventually we managed to hail a cab and that was our chosen route for getting back home for a long nights rest.
